28kHz, 38khz Transducer or 50 kHz

[NZFisher]

Hi guys, i have a FCV 295 i am going to put in a new trailer boat build, which kHz would be the best transducer option for good readings at 500-700m depth, tending towards the 38.
Cheers

Any (1kw,2kw,3kw) FCV295 transducer running 50 khz or lower should be able to manage those depths easy enough. If you are not going any deeper than 700m, you might want to consider 50khz because the higher the freq the better the target resolution (yet you want it low enough to reach your target depth). Yes, 38khz will work for sure, but it really is a bit low freq considering you don't need to go deeper than that.

If anyone knows who has a CA50BL-12HR in stock in the US it would be greatly appreciated as everyone seems to be waiting on back orders, cheers
